Outline of Final Research Achievements

The aim of this project is to conceptualise 'female masculinity' which extends beyond male body and reconcider the establshed notion that masculinity is inseparable from maleness or manliness. During the First World War the British government introduced women into the armed forces on the large scale. The women, who enlisted in the Women's Auxiliary Army Corps and stepped into the battle fields, destabialised binary gender systems. These 'fighting women' threatened not only the masculinity of soldiers but also the feminity of women on the home front. The 'female masculnity' could challenge the dominant masculinity that naturalised the relation between maleness and militarism.
